- 2003 XLT V8
As aldive has done, I have decided to generate a thread that focuses on my desire to achieve 25 mpg highway mileage.
My Truck:
2003 Explorer XLT 4.6 V8
current setup:
265/70 R16 tires
3.90 rear gears
aftermarket muffler (dynomax turbo)
Halo spark plugs http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1981740#post1981740
Baseline highway: 18.8 mpg
Current Highway: 20 mpg
Future mods:
245 75 r16 tires (thinner)
oil and atf fluid switch to synthetic
hydranox 5000 install
acetone addition (possibly)
warm air intake (possibly)
I will attempt to provide as accurate information as possible to allow viewers the ability to make their decisions on modifications to their X.
